“Lionel talked about plans and form before the world championship”, — write: sport.ua
– The World Cup is coming soon. Is it inspiring?
– Yes, definitely. This is a special World Cup, and playing for the national team always gives me special emotions, especially when it comes to such important official tournaments. And the world championship is something incredible, especially when you already became its winner.
However, as I said before, I don’t want to be, so to speak, a burden on the team. I have to feel perfect physically and be absolutely sure that I can really help the national team and benefit it.
Our season in the USA is different from the European season: we have pre-season training and only a few matches before the start of the tournament. So I’m going to have to monitor my condition and see if I’m in the physical shape I want to be in.
Of course, I am aware that the World Cup is something unique, it is the most important football tournament. I am full of hopes, but I prefer to take everything day by day, – said the leader of the Argentina national team.
